With intelligent software that seamlessly integrates with core systems, ADAPTO dramatically accelerates the operational velocity of DCs by increasing throughput and decreasing picking errors.

ADAPTO transforms distribution centers (DCs) through:

  • Intelligent Roaming Shuttles: ADAPTO shuttles are integrated in core systems with intelligent software, allowing them to roam aisles and levels operating independently of lift platforms, enabling advanced sorting and sequencing. They also handle the full array of carton, tray and tote sizes – differentiators that enable DCs to increase the velocity and throughput of their picking operations while simultaneously decreasing the number of errors in 1-to-1 picking and goods-to-picker operations.
  • Operational Flexibility: Modular in design, ADAPTO empowers DCs to quickly adjust and adapt to evolving needs. Storage density can be increased by adding rows and aisles to existing storage structures without disrupting existing operations, and new shuttles and goods-to-picker workstations can be added with ease to increase throughput. ADAPTO also integrates seamlessly with robotic pickers if their application is desired. Maintenance can also be conducted while ADAPTO remains in operation.
  • Highly Intuitive User Interface: In addition to eliminating the most time consuming task in manual DCs – when picking, people spend 70% of their time walking – ADAPTO is also incredibly easy to use. Operators see significant performance gains and new employees can be trained to effectively use it in just a few minutes.
